Many organizations are increasingly focusing on the issue of toxic workplace behaviors—but lack comprehensive solutions to address toxic environments.
According to a recent survey, “Striving for a Non-Toxic Workplace,” toxic workplaces are overwhelmingly common. Some of the main causes include workplace stress, flaws within an organization’s leadership, and the inability to uphold the core values of the company.
In this webinar, we:
- Discuss the negative impact of toxicity in the workplace
- Examine organizational practices that can contribute to—or combat—a toxic environment
- Provide effective solutions to address toxic behaviors, including bullying, harassment, and discrimination
